The main reason for this is the pressure inside the airplane's cabin. The air pressure inside of the cabin lessens as you reach altitude. When you're flying in a plane right after diving, the increase in altitude would result in a drop in pressure which is simliar to a fast ascension while diving.

What happens if you dive then fly?
